Windscreens

[NFS 32]

Hi, are the 205 gti windscreen different from a normal 205? ie will any 205 windscreen fit my gti?

they will all fit, but a gti has the bronze tint, and there's a sunroof and non sunroof type seal as wlel, use the original if needs be.

Yeah i have the sun roof seal, but i sacificaed the windscreen to get the seal out intact, now i need to find one which is proving very hard to come by lol

I recently had my windscreen replaced and the independent company that did mine managed to source a brand new Pilkington o.e spec bronze tint screen for my GTI within 24 hours

 

I'd also enquired with National Windscreens and even they said they could get the same Pilkington screen to me within 48 hours of ordering

 

Not that expensive either tbh - I paid circa £120 supplied & fitted (inc vat) - I think the screen was only circa £45-£50 of that total price tbh

Good to know. I've got a big chip in my screen and the seal appears to leak something awful. I read another post where several people replaced the seal only to have the screen crack. Someone said that this is common with an old screen and a new seal so I'd rather just replace both.
